As much as he tried, Wildflower couldn't exorcise the golden ghost from his mind. Of course he couldn't. The desert hadn't been able to bake away his influence, either.
Lying there, tired and melancholy, the sidewinder realized he would just have to keep looking. For now, though, he shut his eyes and listened to the soft susurrus of the swirling creek. The wind clinking eerily through the shedding trees. He breathed deep, his lungs expanding and slowly contracting, once, twice —
Stormwater eyes flickered open. He lifted his head and half-turned toward the familiar scent. His eyes, however, were distant unfocused. What if it was a ghost after all?
"Hey, cher," he murmured to the breeze, testing out the words. Even if Sunspot wasn't there, maybe it was time to talk.
